Gifts from Petrichor

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we visit a store I have been a fan of for ages, Petrichor (formerly Plastik), to take a look at some of their generous group gifts. The store group is free to join, and there are plenty of treats like clothing, accessories, tattoos, and fun things to hold, all beautifully crafted and textured. This is one of those designers whose artistic nature really shines through, and it makes me so happy to see their mostly fantasy-based creations.


My first look this evening is their :[P]:- Satri Outfit FREE group gift, and wait until you hear about the many options! The top and loincloth (versions for human legs and satyr legs) each fit Hourglass and Maitreya bodies, and each of those are provided in cedar, forest, oak, and a tintable version with 40-color HUDs for each piece. The pairing on the left above is the Forest top and loincloth, and on the right I colored the tintable one with the HUDs. They all look like they were tooled from leather and buffed to a metallic sheen, very intricate!


Next I changed into the cleverly named :[P]:- Snekini gift, a combination of snek (snake) and bikini :) The black bra and thong are each provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Hourglass Petite, Legacy, Perky, Maitreya, and Maitreya Petite mesh bodies, and are adorned with images of snakes with their mouths wide open. I've also seen them called nope rope and danger noodles, so the internet has lots of fun terms for them. The bikini seemed to be a great way to show off one of the tattoo group gifts, so I added the :[P]:- Rosalune Tattoo. It comes in BOM layers in 25%, 60%, and 100% opacity options, with the 100% being shown here in hopes that it helps the visibility in photographs. I love the flowers on the arms, ribs, groin, butt creases, and down the legs, with great linework and a crescent moon adorned with flowers and jewels on our back. *chef's kiss*


With the Halloween season rapidly approaching, I think the :[P]:- Spidela Outfit FREE is particularly timely even if it does also have a timeless feel. We receive the bodysuit and boots each in Hourglass and Maitreya sizes, with HUDs for each. The bodysuit HUD offers 50 colors for the base, 15 for the details, and 30 for the gemstones which appear as the spider's body. The HUD for our boots is similar with 50 base colors and 15 for the details, so the trim can be contrasting or blend in for either piece. I did have to alpha out my lower legs and feet to help the boots fit better, as we do sometimes have to do for older meshes. There's a notecard explaining that it is no longer being updated or supported, well of course because it's free :) No problem here, it still looks fantastic!


Another stunning outfit that fits Hourglass and Maitreya bodies is our :[P]:- Xanie Outfit FREE gift. The body, body faded, armbands, belt, boots, and boots faded are each provided in both aforementioned sizes, and wait until you see all the HUDs! The body HUD, boots HUD, belt HUD, and choker/arms HUD all have 30 main colors and 16 trim or metals, while the body faded HUD and boots faded HUD have 25 gorgeous gradients and 16 trim/metals. These are going to be ideal for roleplay as well as just general appeal, like I truly found myself just gawking at the details for a few minutes and then playing with all the HUDs for a while.


My final look of the evening is the :[P]:- Ariah Outfit FREE group gift which is also created for the Hourglass and Maitreya mesh bodies. There are a dress, capebelt, gloves, and boots in each size, with a HUD for each as well. The HUDs for the dress, capebelt, and gloves each offer 30 fabric choices and 30 gem colors, while the boots HUD has 30 gem colors, 30 fabric colors, 12 hues for the heels, and 12 snowflake metals. Basically we can customize the living daylights out of these pieces :) The capebelt is such an intriguing notion, reminiscent of coattails on a formal jacket like a tuxedo.

It was a fairly low-key day here, unlike tomorrow when I have a therapy session and a late afternoon phone call with my family doctor to make up for the call last week that got botched somehow (phone didn't ring or vibrate). Exposure therapy is rough stuff, and I have been a bundle of nerves for two days now so I can only imagine how I'll be when that session happens. I hope you're all having a lovely day/evening, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
